	More level-headed than his fellow [[Knights of Unicron (band)\|Knights of Unicron]], '''Soundwave''' is said to be the glue that holds the band together... when they actually ARE together, that is. He manages the double duty of being both the Knights' back-up vocalist and their music arranger. With keen audio-receptors and a talent for squeezing out the most metal-ness from the band's music, Soundwave is always ready to blow off the roof of whatever venue the Knights of Unicron are performing in!

	Soundwave was once a member of "Bumblebee and the Hive" until their lead singer shredded his audio box, and it became necessary to scope out new talent to replace him. A demo tape from a lowly record clerk overloaded the band's collective circuits, and Optimus Prime was brought onboard the now rechristened "Knights of Unicron." Years of processor shredding musical mayhem ensued, until petty infighting drove the band apart.

	Soundwave eventually took on two prodigies, [[Ratbat (KOU)\|Ratbat]] and [[Rumble (KOU)\|Rumble]], and oversaw their growth into a pop duo. By 2014, Soundwave had moved on to acting as a judge on the hit show "[[Cybertron's Got Talent]]". At least until the call to reunite with the other Knights heeded him to take the stage once again. The ensuing reunion tour was sure to be nothing short of awesome. {{storylink\|Knights of Unicron (band)#Behind the Music pack-in booklet\|Behind the Music}}		Soundwave eventually took on two prodigies, [[Ratbat (KOU)\|Ratbat]] and [[Rumble (KOU)\|Rumble]], and oversaw their growth into a pop duo.

He comes with his classic shoulder launcher and rifle, both of which can be mounted on his hands, right shoulder, and rear vehicle sides via [[5 mm post]]s, and store inside his opening chest (approximating the visual of cassette spools). Soundwave's head features a [[light-piping]] gimmick, but the effect is largely neutered by his painted visor... and his hair.

	: This glam-rocky version of Soundwave is augmented by a soft-goods mohawk (held in place by an elastic fabric strap) and a huge yellow bandana tied around his left bicep. Both additions are easily removed, though the mohawk can be a little bit of a pain to get -and keep- back in place. Neither of these add-ons strictly ''need'' to be removed to get Soundwave into vehicle mode, but the bandana does tend get in the way and make it harder to see what you're doing, lining-up-parts-wise. His additional microphone accessory does not have a particularly good place to go in vehicle mode (being too long to fit in his chest compartment), and its incredibly shallow 5mm peg means Soundwave barely holds it in the first place.		: This glam-rocky version of Soundwave is augmented by a soft-goods mohawk (held in place by an elastic fabric strap) and a huge yellow bandana tied around his left bicep.
